2024 Hewescraft Adventure 290

FISH AND CRUISE IN COMFORT

At 31+ feet long and just under 10 feet at the beam, the Adventure is the biggest, toughest, most capable boat we’ve ever built. The 55° bow entry deadrise keeps you safe as you cut through swells and chop. The 48-inch side height keeps rough water out. And, like every Hewescraft, this boat will not sink if swamped or capsized. Any boat can claim this combination of size and safety. The Adventure is not just any boat—it surpasses every Coast Guard safety and flotation requirement, and it does so in mahogany-trimmed style and world-class comfort.

We set out to create something new, something a serious angler would use for more than a trip to the salmon grounds. The 290 Adventure is not simply a larger version of another Hewescraft, it’s a completely new design. Built with fishing in mind, the Adventure provides a huge deck and 245 gallons of fish storage.

The spacious interior cabin is designed with 6’4” of headroom and is nicely appointed for cruising, cooking, and entertaining. As you step down into the forward cabin, you will immediately notice how roomy and comfortable the area feels. This is not a cramped cuddy; overnight accommodations are exceptionally nice. Amenities such as the upholstered walls and ceiling, port and starboard screened windows, LED lights, and power outlets all make for very relaxing nights. Overall the Adventure sleeps 4 adults, is rated for a crew of 11, and does so with hot/cold running water, cooktop, microwave, refrigerator, dinette, cabin heat, and a full head closet which includes a flushing toilet, sink, and a standup shower.
